I had thought you were discussing game administration interference (9-1-6), which is what actually happened and not the hypothetical illegal interference (9-1-5). If it was illegal interference, then I agree, it seems the fouls would offset.

They would not offset for game administration interference since the foul is specifically enforced as a dead ball foul.
